Abstract
The proposed printed circuit harmonic RF dipole tag on a ground plane with an appropriate impedance matching technique offer better sensitivity at low excitation levels when compared to a more conventional wire harmonic dipole tag. By exploiting existing Wi-Fi and satellite TV technology, it should be possible to build a capable, low cost harmonic radar.
